I have to say that as the current Chronicler in Stonemarche I feel singularly obsolete. I'm putting out a newsletter that I'm not sure anyone actually cares about, except maybe that I'm providing a regular compendium of links to all the on-line information about the Barony. Most of what I print is lifted from public announcements in one on-line source or another.

I see a major change here from when I was Chronicler for Stonemarche back in the early 90's. Back then I still wasn't overwhelmed with submissions, but I didn't have to chase people quite so hard. Officers at least had things they wanted announced. Now I feel very much like the sole contribution I'm making by producing the newsletter is filling a check-box on the corporate policy that lets us keep being a Barony. It' very de-motivating.
